Since I have been back to work, I have been sick twice (a very bad cold presently) and even though I eat organically and hand wash etc. I started searching for ways to improve my overall health and immune system and found your site. I am already on Amazon Canada looking for your books, so I believe I have found a great resource through your blog! I was wondering since I am not a fantastic cook and this may seem really obvious so I apologize in advance - but the whole chicken in the recipe - is that giblets and neck removed and the entire chicken goes in the stock pot? Thank you for your blog and I am looking forward to reading your books! <br /><br />MelissaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076404144273849876.post-5828054680706377372014-05-27T05:51:36.334-07:002014-05-27T05:51:36.334-07:00Sounds really nice this,thanks for sharing this re...Sounds really nice this,thanks for sharing this recipe.<br /><br />Simonplasterers bristolnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076404144273849876.post-46314326329504872852014-03-30T21:36:49.043-07:002014-03-30T21:36:49.043-07:00This soup is AMAZING.

It is my new go-to chicken soup recipe.

First day back I got the email for this recipe and promptly made it. Very good soup (taste) and managed to fight off the flu/cold that was looming over me. Thanks! I’ll be keeping this recipe handy.

Now I am thinking I put in way too much! Would this be okay?? <br /><br />Thank you!<br /><br />LauraLaurahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12321525051957150152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076404144273849876.post-62380997877470643532014-02-09T19:29:09.101-08:002014-02-09T19:29:09.101-08:00I just made this soup today!

That way you add some freshness to the reheated soup. :)Alihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04581435966686625594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076404144273849876.post-24854992375494550562014-02-08T10:23:20.228-08:002014-02-08T10:23:20.228-08:00can you freeze this?can you freeze this?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076404144273849876.post-81816159266557478422014-02-07T16:53:00.731-08:002014-02-07T16:53:00.731-08:00The new look is beautiful!The new look is beautiful!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076404144273849876.post-73148538384501264022014-02-07T16:39:41.154-08:002014-02-07T16:39:41.154-08:00Hi Linda,

I usually only include a few of the most popular recipes from the blog in my books, otherwise the recipes in my books are ones you won&#39;t find here. Hope that clarifies it.
